Management appointment
Skeena is pleased to announce the appointment of Ryan Maloney as vice-president of corporate development and a member of the executive leadership team, effective in the coming months. Mr. Maloney will be responsible for the company's corporate development activities, including corporate strategy, growth initiatives, strategic partnerships, capital allocation and engagement with the capital markets.
Mr. Maloney brings more than 10 years of institutional capital markets experience to Skeena, having worked with many of the mining industry's leading companies. Most recently, he served as director, mining specialty sales, global markets, at BMO Capital Markets. Prior to BMO, Mr. Maloney held senior institutional equity sales positions at Desjardins Capital Markets and Sprott Capital Partners. He holds a bachelor of business administration (finance) from St. Francis Xavier University, graduating with distinction.
Management transition
After 10 years with Skeena, Justin Himmelright, senior vice-president of external affairs, will transition from the executive leadership team to serve as a strategic adviser, effective July 1, 2026.
Mr. Himmelright has been instrumental in the development and execution of Skeena's external affairs strategy and recently played a key role in securing British Columbia's first Section 7 Impact Benefit Agreement. The agreement marked an important milestone in the permitting of the Eskay Creek project, and established a new framework for collaboration and reconciliation in the province.
In his role as strategic adviser, Mr. Himmelright will continue to support the company on government relations, policy matters, stakeholder engagement and first nations relations. He will remain Skeena's primary liaison with provincial, federal and first nation elected officials, and will continue to represent the company on the board of the Mining Association of BC.
